Sodalis Merritt Island provides Assisted Living, pairing daily personal support with access to a licensed speech therapist for residents who need help maintaining or improving communication and swallowing abilities. Care plans are individualized and reviewed regularly to keep pace with changing health requirements.
The community maintains secured entry and exit points to support resident safety, particularly for those receiving on-site memory care services. A nurse is on staff, and scheduled visits from a dentist and a podiatrist are available. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists coordinate directly with caregivers, and hospice services can be brought in if a resident’s condition advances. Medication management is handled in-house so doses remain accurate and on schedule.
Apartments are air-conditioned and designed to be handicap accessible; many include wheelchair-friendly showers, kitchenettes, cable or satellite TV, and Wi-Fi. Some residences feature a balcony, patio, or deck, and parking is offered for those who still drive. Because floor plans vary, not all units contain every listed feature, so it is advisable to confirm specific details during a visit.
Dining follows a restaurant-style approach with three scheduled meals each day and an all-day dining option for flexible hours. A professional chef prepares menus that accommodate vegan, vegetarian, low-sodium, no-added-sugar, and other medically indicated diets. Guests can join residents for meals by arrangement, and special requests are handled whenever possible.
Residents have access to an activity center for fitness classes, chair yoga, karaoke, dances, live music, and intergenerational programs. A library and computer lounge support quiet reading, internet use, or video chats with family, and planned social outings keep residents connected to the local community. Birthday parties and other events are organized regularly to encourage social engagement.
